Using instructions

Lacquering:
- The surface has to be clean, dry and free from fat.
- Before use, shake the can vigorously for 3 minutes.

- Spray from a distance of approx. 25 cm several thin coats in 3 -5 minute intervals.
- Earliest after 3 hours drying time it is possible to apply any DUPLI-COLOR top coat. Depending on thicknes of the applied coat, the intensity of the achieved structure can degrease.
